Best Answer

Solid waste passes through the large intestine where the nutrients are digested and taken into the body by osmosisi. It continues on thru the digestive tract via waves of peristalsis, where digestion is assisted by the addition of digestive enzymes all thru the process . It then reaches the rectal vault , which is where it's stored (as faeces). It is then released out of the body via the anus.

What is the name of the storage organ for feces?

Feces is stored in the colon until defectation occurs. The more proximal portions of the colon also serve to absorb water from the feces. The rectum, which is the more distal portion of the colon, serves primarily to store feces pending defecation and is probably the answer you are looking for.
